Neuro-Ophthalmology Service

Boston Children's Hospital's Department of Ophthalmology is now home to a comprehensive Neuro-Ophthalmology Service for the evaluation and management of neuro-ophthalmic disorders that affect infants and children.

We are one of just a handful of pediatric ophthalmology programs in the world with a service dedicated entirely to eye problems caused by neurological conditions.
